Keeping image files out of textbox

Keeping image files out of textbox

How do I implement this feature? I don't want users to be able to insert images into simple textboxes for commenting on my website. I know there is a strip tag feature however what program can I use to implement it?

Update: I have modified some of code to read ((isset($_POST["commentsbox"]))?(strip_tags($_POST["commentsbox"])):"") which keeps ALL tags out, however if I only want to keep certain tags such as image, how can I change that code above to handle this feature?

I have tried this line ((isset($_POST["comment"]))?(strip_tags ($str, "remove","<img>"($_POST["comment"]))):"") which doesn't work still. I am stuck here, any suggestions. The only html I want to allow is <a href> and <p>... but no images or scripts.

the second argument of the strip_tags function allows you to specify allowed tags.

to allow <p> and <a href> tags, use:

php:
((isset($_POST["commentsbox"]))?(strip_tags($_POST["commentsbox"], '<p><a>')):"")

((isset($_POST["commentsbox"]))?(strip_tags ($_POST["commentsbox"]), '<p><a>'):"") gives me an error that says -Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ','

If I take out the ',' before the allowable tags it says -Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING

sorry, the code should be:

php:
((isset($_POST["commentsbox"]))?(strip_tags($_POST["commentsbox"], '<p><a>')):"")
